About Faith R.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, senior dogs - all ages. And experience with big dogs & small dogs. Any type of collar or harness, I know how to use! I take my personal dogs' training very seriously and always make safe decisions for my pets. I can easily crate dogs as needed. I can medicate even the most stubborn dogs if there are any medicines needed. I am very gentle with dogs and they don't tend to shy away from me!
Information Faith R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs. For everyone's safety, and with no judgement - i'd ask for you to please let me know if your dog has any aggression towards specific groups of people (children, elderly, men, women, etc). Depending on the size of your dog, I may ask what type of collar/leash they use.
A typical day
I love to walk around historic areas and shops with dogs. I also have a passion for trail walking - my belief is that as a dog becomes more exposed to foreign environments then they acquire wisdom, peace, and can even live longer. If you want me to take your dog to a trail or park, we can discuss logistics ahead of time. If I need to drive your dog - safety is my priority. With that being said, typically I can fit small to large dogs in my car, it is my preference to crate them but if they cannot be crated due to size or logistics then I can buckle them with a seatbelt harness & a car hammock in my back seat. I have a clean driving record and my car is reliable. Neighborhood walking is great, I can certainly come up with some fun paths for us to explore. If I am dropping in at your home, I can certainly play with your dog for a bit and make sure they have plenty of snuggles and pets! Plus i'll refill their water and food as needed.

Care for your beloved animals
Pet care experience
**About Me** As a passionate animal lover, I dedicate much of my free time to researching animal care, training, and rehabilitation. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with a variety of animals, including cats, birds, guinea pigs, ducks, fish, and, of course, dogs. I am detail-oriented in nature, meticulously following care instructions, tailoring every visit to your pet’s unique needs. Your pet’s health and safety will be my top priority, so you can trust they’re in attentive and capable hands while I’m with them. In addition to my part-time, hybrid job, I manage a household of three dogs who operate on flexible schedules as I train them to adapt to a dynamic lifestyle. My spouse, a fellow pet parent, supports my passion for pet care, ensuring my dogs are well cared for while I focus on my Rover clients. Transparency is important to me, so I will always communicate if scheduling conflicts arise prior to booking. **Experience with Dogs** I have extensive experience with dogs of all temperaments and life stages, including anxious or shy dogs, senior dogs, and puppies. While I’m not a professional trainer, I actively learn from my dogs’ training classes and apply my knowledge of behavior and body language to create safe, comfortable, and positive experiences for the dogs I care for. I’m skilled in administering oral medications and performing basic hygiene tasks, so you can rest assured your dog will receive the care they need. My approach is always compassionate and attentive. **Why I’m Here** Providing services on Rover is more than a job for me—it’s a way to boost my mental health and connect with animals, which I find deeply fulfilling. I genuinely care about your pets’ happiness and safety and will always go the extra mile to ensure they feel loved, secure, and well cared for during our time together.

Reviews

Faith did an amazing job with my English Bulldog! She was very communicative and gave great updates. She went above and beyond to make sure he was happy! She even spent extra time with him! Will definitely be using her services again!

Faith was an outstanding and reliable bird sitter. The birds were very friendly with her. They had plenty of flight time and enjoyed hanging out with her. Faith was fantastic in cleaning up, providing food and water, and playing with the birds. She took many photos and gave frequent updates on how everyone was doing, which was wonderful. You can tell she is a caring and trustworthy friend to all furry creatures.

Faith did an amazing job taking care of my husky, Bruce, while I was on vacation. Her experience with dogs, especially energetic breeds like huskies, was evident right away. She kept me updated with photos and messages, showing Bruce happy and well-exercised. Faith’s professionalism and genuine love for animals gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I returned to a very happy dog and couldn’t be more grateful! Highly recommend Faith for anyone needing a reliable and caring dog walker.
Faith has been a great sitter for our two cats. She was understanding that they were very shy and skittish at first, and would clean their litter and change their food and water bowls as well—as well as “finding them” to make sure they were okay and healthy since they usually hide with new company. Eventually, they got used to her visits and Faith won them over with some cat treats and catnip. They love coming out now to visit with her and get some affection when we’re out of town. I would recommend Faith as a pet sitter to others. She is thorough, consistent, and communicates well.
